Well it's almost that time for my first born to start elementary school and man I'm not ready…read more My wife entered our daughter into the magent lottery for Roland Park and she was selected and were here today to go on a tour of the school. Beautiful school no special effects but just well maintained and man the programs they have here are intriguing. We were able to see most of the school but mainly Kindergarten classes while in session. Each class we entered a student would speak to us and i was amazed with the students well spoken and very knowledgeable about their topic. Everything seems great about this school from the outside looking in, once my daughter completes her first year I'll write an update review. Now the reason my wife choose this school was because she was told how diverse Roland park was and I'm here to tell you that's not true from what i witnessed. We visited maybe 7 different classes and not one black or latino teacher. Each class had one black student and yes i was looking. We saw teachers in the hallway walking their students from classes to classes and nope no diversity in sight. Definitely not surprising being that most folks see corporate America as diverse because they're a handful of black and brown folks in a office. Maybe they do have black and latino teachers but i didn't see not one and honestly i only saw one staffer that was black the entire 2hrs we was on the tour. Nevertheless the verdict is still out but looks to be a good school and i hope my daughter first experience in this school is a good one

Warning: do not send your child here or pay the taxes to live in this district! The school is a…read morefraud. It used to be considered one of the best schools in the district. The only reason the kids score well is because every child is required to get expensive private tutors. 90 percent of the teachers are horrible, they hate teaching, they go on political rants, and they are absent more than the students. The kids vape in the bathrooms, and another children are afraid to go in there. No one cares about your child's learning. The school relies on its old South Tampa name, but it has gone extremely downhill. And the new principal doesn't seem like she is going to be any help. So sad to see a Tampa foundation crumble.

If you expect the guidance department to actually help your child with their schedule, prepare to…read morebe disappointed. The scheduling process is a nightmare, fueled by laziness, gatekeeping, and zero transparency. Counselors hide available class lists from parents. Instead of finding the best fit, they force students into low-enrollment classes to balance their numbers. When you ask for a simple list of available options, they refuse to be upfront. Even when you approach them politely, you are met with unprofessionalism, dismissive attitudes, and absolute disrespect. Worse than the basic incompetence is the toxic, defensive culture. Leadership and guidance staff literally get together to mock and gossip about parents who speak up. It is petty, schoolyard behavior from grown adults trusted with education. They hide class inventories so parents must blindly accept whatever subpar schedule they throw at them. This administration cares more about dodging work than they do about the students!!!

I disagree with the only other person who reviewed this school. Though as we all know, these are…read moreour opinions so the only way to know better than what we state, is to look into it for yourself. This is a great school, the principle (Mrs. French) is AMAZING-knows most all of the students by name, even the 6th graders. My child is a good girl-her average yearly GPA is a 3.9. I think that being separated from boys is a great idea because the girls can focus on their studies rather than on the boys (don't act like you can't relate, or did you forget how it is to be a teen with raging hormones?). In my opinion, they need to create an all girls high school as well-but the county won't, nor those parents who think their 2 cents is needed (if you don't support single gender schools and have no intentions of enrolling your child in one-keep your opinion to yourself-this obviously doesn't apply to you and we don't need your voice heard in regards to this matter). At any rate, the area does kinda suck but having a magnet school in the area is just a tactic to bring/clean up the surrounding neighborhood, or so I assume. The school is old, obviously not the employees faults but not filthy. I believe the maintenance/cleaning crew has won an award for 2 yrs in a row now for their team/performance. The curriculum is challenging-but maybe that's because my daughter is in all advanced courses-yes, every last one (yes-I am a proud mother, but I am sure you get that by all I've said thus far). I have no complaints of the staff. The teachers communicate well, and the office staff are courteous. The HOST program is great and the HOST staff...well I couldn't ask for better. My daughter has been on the school's soccer team and also in band and I'll be adding Golf Academy to the list for this upcoming school year. Overall, this has been an excellent experience. I drive 20 mins. out of my way (taking Expressway of course, and tack on another 15 mins. to get to my job), but it is worth it to me. We fully intend on finishing out her middle school experience at Ferrell. My daughter loves the school and if she loves it, then I love it too. But a lot of the girls love the school and make good grades (of course not all)-so that should speak for something! Oh-and they do have school dances where the boys from the all boys prep school (Franklin I believe) come to attend. The girls also play their sports right before the all boys prep so there's a chance to mingle there for a few...and also in the summer HOST program, it is co-ed. So see? Not JUST all girls-they so get some boy interaction, it's just not on a daily which is fine by me! Besides, most girls in this age group would rather be around girls...this is the age range where they start to blossom. Oh, this is an Apple certified school, so each girl is assigned an iPad to carry throughout the day. Check it out-only you can decide what you believe is best for your daughter. I only see benefits for mine. This is an A rated school. It is new, I believe only 3 yrs old, but trust me, your child can reap more benefits by attending this school than a co-ed or traditional school. Go see for yourself :) Oh, and this review is not up for debate. I'm not interested in hearing the confrontational parent who wants to argue single gender schools, this is just my review on my daughters school, that we so love.

(Like most other schools in America anyways so I don't see the appeal of calling it a school/ center for the arts.)

Don't get me wrong, I really loved this school and everything was fine till my very last year. Some teachers don't even deserve to teach. However, there were some teachers that loved what they did and I actually got to learn something from them. If I go into details of everything that happened while I attended, it'll be never ending stories. So let just say I had good and bad things happened. The good thing is that I graduated before they installed cameras and locked gates so that anyone who was in couldn't get out, lol. The bad is that we were on lockdown several times for firearm incident. Scariest moments of my life!
